Ducks' Ryan Kesler: Sitting out Saturday

Kessler will not play in Saturday's game against the Wild and is considered day-to-day with a lower-body injury, Eric Stephens of the Orange County Register reports.

Kessler has reportedly been battling the lower-body injury during the second half of the campaign. His next opportunity to rejoin the lineup arrives Monday against the Golden Knights, while Derek Grant will replace him Saturday.
